Even if my charging port on the bottom is broken, this will still charge my nexus it is a first generation?

My micro USB connection wasn't working to charge any more, so I got the dock, and it's better and faster than the USB charge ever was. It connects with the four small metal connectors on the lower left edge. If you have those, it should be compatible. (The later model doesn't have them)

If you look at the side edge of your Nexus, you should see a 3/8" row of four circular metal contacts. On mine, they are on the left side near the bottom. The dock uses these pogo pins to connect with and charge the Nexus. This works well as an alternative way to charge if the micro-USB connector is broken.

This is exactly why I bought it! Charges from 2% to 100% within 4 hours usually, my bottom port is still broken.

This is exactly why I purchased the dock. My kids were too rough with the receptacle on the bottom, now they have a full charge every morning.

Yes, the dock powers and charges the tablet using the little gold contacts on the side of the tablet, not using the plug port on the bottom of the tablet.
9757
Yes.If your USB charging port is broken/Wont charge/not working, then this is the answer.

If you are talking about the mini port broken where you plug in the cord... Yes because it charges the tablet by using the pogo pins on the side of the tablet... Look on the side of your tablet you will see about four gold dots that is where the connection is made to be able to use the charging port.

No. As long as your phone/tablet is Qi compatible, placing it in the center (where the Qi logo is) should initiate charging. I've used it with both Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 (2013) with no problems.

I suddenly started having problems with my Nexus 7 charging. I thought it was the battery and replace it myself. But it still wouldn't charge. It charged once off the computer USB port and then that didn't work. So was the battery bad, or was it the OEM or the charger itself or what. The parts are all pretty expensive so I ordered the docking station. And it works. So glad to have my Nexus back!

My guess (since I don't have a Nexus to check out) is that it won't work. The charger you refer to has the plug at the base and middle of the well. The thicker part of the mini USB plug is toward the rear. However, it may still not fit.

Sorry, can't help. I only have a first generation iPad, which it did not charge.

If your Charging port has been damaged, this product will probably not function properly. Inside the charging back there is a built-in plug that must connect to your phones charging port (the Micro USB one at the bottom)

The generation 1 ipad original charger is 2.1Amps. So long as you use the 2A USB connector this should charge it fine. Though I would not recommend using the ipad for long while this is plugged in.

I got nexus 7 new, just a few months ago. So I'm assuming its the 2nd generation. It works great my toddler has dropped it several times, it still works. :-)

Mine didn't. But it uses the same charger as the nexus 7 or any micro USB charger

You can charge any device that takes a USB micro or mini charging input. That should be fine for the Nexus. The phone depends on what kind of input it takes.

It is not too bad. Google "nexus 7 change battery" and the top results show you how to do it. If you had a charging issue with the old battery a new one might not fix it, there is some inherent problem with the mini USB port that eventually causes it to fail. I have two nexus 7 2013 tablets that won't charge even with a new battery.

The charging port is non-standard: it's a round peg-style charging connector that connects to any standard USB charging source. Standard micro-USB cables won't charge this device, and if you lose the proprietary cable, your out of luck until you find a way to replace it.

Hi, T. I charge my Nexus 7 (2013) on my Digi charger everyday. Have no worries.

This charger uses the charging port to work so if your port is broken you need to mend it first. Hope this helps

Yep, I actually just received my Nexus charging orb yesterday and it charges fine. The orb uses some sort of rubberized pads to grip onto the back of the phone, and holds and charges it with any case.

It works fine with the Generation 1 nexus 7. I think it still work with the second generation, but I'm just assuming it. From what I hear is the second generation is slimmer
